  • Hey there guys,
    Ive just noticed someone has made a wordpress page about myself. Check it out, Most of it is out of place and misleading and very offensive, i know who has made it and want it torn down.
    How would this be a possiblity so i can get it removed, and then take legal action against the person who has made it?

    Regards

  • Call a lawyer.

    Not much you can do about when they say. Freedom of speech and all that. Especially if they have any proof that what they say is true. You could sue them for ‘slander’, but you’d have to prove in court that it isn’t true. And that might be difficult. Perhaps a letter from your lawyer would be enough to convince them to stop.

    They’ve also disclosed private information on the Internet. Depending on where you live, there may be laws that can be enforced about that.

    You could also try and have the domain name they registered in your name revoked. If you can prove it’s your name, and they can’t… You should be able to get it changed to you.

    So, you have some options. GOOD LUCK.

    Topic moved to miscellaneous as it is not a WordPress issue.

    You need to contact the hosting company in the first instance to register your complaint

    The site appears to be hosted by dreamhost
    see: http://www.whoishostingthis.com/alexkantarovski.com

    The website is 100% legal.

    There are no threats and it points to all information already on the Internet and everything is free due to the freedom of information act in Australia.

    He can not do anything with both domains as his company is not legit registered meaning he has also committed TAX fraud in Australia. and the domain name is not his actual name but there is no law in registering a domain name in someone name.

    We have a lot of emails coming through as well as privet message of information in regards to people being ripped off by this guy. WE ARE CURRENTLY talking to a group of people that want to take matters into a CLASS Action against him. the work lawyer has said they have grounds to stand on also been advised that the local news company (ACA) who find people like this and bring them out to the public as a con artiest.

    Regards Rob
